Any place I should visit?

Where is TI Blvd?

Dario · Aug 29, 2006

Look like Texas Instrument judging on what is close to it.

lwalden · Aug 29, 2006

first exit after 75N (Central Distressway) when you're eastbound on 635- I believe it is also referred to as Floyd road- its about a mile north of 635.

Dario, I may be up in Bonham (about an hour and a half northeast of Dallas) on Saturday installing some cabinets I've been building for a friend, but that's not firmed up yet. If that ends up being a no-go, I'd be happy to meet up with you. I think I at least owe you lunch after the blank swap we did a month ago. I should know for sure by Thursday what scheduling will look like for this weekend.

Not sure about this...I got really great blanks from you, I feel I am the one who owes you.

Would love to meet you if you are free, just let me know!

Ron Mc · Aug 30, 2006

I'll be darn! You'll be right down the hwy.
Do I smell a lunch?

Dario · Aug 30, 2006

Ron,

Are you close? If you want to meet up just tell me.

HiTekRedNek · Aug 30, 2006

I wish that I was going to be in town this weekend. After seeing some of the incredible work that you've posted here, It would be great to meet you.

lwalden · Aug 31, 2006

Hugh, where in Roanoke are you? We're pretty much next door neighbors, with me over in Trophy Club. We need to try and get together some time- give me a holler when you get back into town.

Dario, I've got some flexibility on the cabinet installation- What's the time frame you're going to have free on Saturday?

Dario- that goes to my home e-mail address... I'm assuming it has more details on your visit and/or contact info. I'll take a look at it as soon as I get home.

Lyle,

Just my cell phone no. email me yours so we can plan.

I'll let you decide where to meet and the sooner you can give me an address the better so I can map it...else I will most likely get lost [

] LOL

its_virgil · Aug 31, 2006

I'm in the metroplex on Saturday....I'm feeling a little hungry myself.
Do a good turn daily!

Don,

If you can join us that will be great!!!

I'll email you my phone no.

Ron Mc · Aug 31, 2006

It appears that we will be taking over a restaurant for lunch![

]
Dario, Lyle and Don it looks like I'll be available for a lunch gathering on Saturday. Lyle, I'd like to take a look at the Cobalt Blue dyed curly maple. Don, I'll bring your SWAT pen kits. Dario, I can't wait to see all the Amboyna Burl your bringing![

]

lwalden · Aug 31, 2006

Ron, I'll bring some of the curly and birdseye both. Don, where will you be starting from? Will you already be in the metroplex Saturday, or headed that way from Wichita Falls? I'm trying to talk Dario into letting me drag him out to my place that morning before lunch (gives me an opportunity to try and steal a march on y'all for the blank swap, if I'm successful!![}

][}

])If that works for Dario, we'd be heading back towards Dallas from out by the Texas Motor Speedway north of Fort Worth. We've got a ton of options available for a spot to meet for lunch, just need to figure out what will work best given where everyone will be starting from.

Dario · Sep 1, 2006

Lyle, If you are willing to pick me up, I'll take you up on that.

Ron, Would gladly bring some amboyna but I am out (well except for a few personal pieces [

]). I actually just bought some from Isaac recently but they haven't arrived yet. I hope the ones I brought with me (already in the car so I can got to Dallas straight tonight) please you.

See you guys tomorrow!

its_virgil · Sep 1, 2006

Lyle, Ron, and Dario:
I'm in Itasca, 50 mi. south of FW on I35W and heading back to Wichita Falls on Sat. I'm stopping in Burleson in the morning to visit another penturner and headed to Cabelas on the way home. So, somewhere in the motor speedway area or close to Trophy Club would work out great for me. I didn't bring any blanks with me, oh yea, I may have a snake or two crawling around in the truck[

Let me know where when the decision is made.
Do a good turn daily!

There are a lot of restaurants over by the Bass Pro Shop. Lyle since that is your side of the world just let us know what restaurant and time.

lwalden · Sep 1, 2006

Just around the corner from the Bass Pro shop is a restaraunt called Love and War in Texas (I understand the owner went through a rough divorce, and believes one leads to the other [}

][B)][}

]). There's actually a strip of shops and restaurants between the Grapevine Mills mall and Grapevine Mills Parkway, running parallel to 121. Don, From Cabella's your going to want to go east on 170, which will merge into 114. Either hook up with Dario and I in Trophy Club between 11:00 and 11:30, or keep on 114 until you get to 121 North right before the Airport. How's Noon sound for lunch? Take 121 North and Exit for Grape Vine Mills Parkway/Grapevine Mills Mall. The restaraunt will be on the left (west side). Don, my cell is 972.567.6063. Sorry this message is so late- I just got back from Bonham......
